I'm in San Francisco and I want to meet the guy at the telephone company
that gave USF, a Jesuit University, the telephone prefix of 666. I
think it might be the same guy who named a picknic area after the Donner
Party. They were a party of folks that got caught in the snow and had
to resort to canabalism. The USF prefix has been changed, but it still
is part of SF lore.

My two cents: We are looking at this from a very Western view point.
What does "666" mean in say Japan or The Kingdom of Swaziland?

Discuss. . .
